Not bad, hum?!
This clip was recorded with a crappy digial camera. Played with a 97 Gibson Studio double cutway straigh in. Needless to say that video sound doesn't do amp justice.
Tweed Deluxe Replica
I have been away for a while. I went deep in my last project where I hand wired from scratch a replica of a historical 50's vacuum tube vintage guitar amplifier, Fender Tweed Deluxe.
The tweed covered pine cabinet and the speaker are exact replicas of the originals. They're hand made by Weber VST. I have spent some time chasing some of the old stock parts like the 60 years old tubes and resistors in order to recreate the typical sound and mojo.
If you wonder how it sounds. Try to think of Neil Young's tone in "Devil's sidewalk" or Eric Clapton playing "cocaine". I am thrilled with this time machine... golden tone and creamy distortion galore!
It's almost like building your own surfboard!
Urban archaeology
Artifacts from the mid XX Century forgotten on a school attic. Pretty like the Horseshoe crab these guitar has change very little since they first appear.
